Guy McMaster FOOD PAIRING Peachy keen on the nose, with notes of vanilla bean, melon and apricot. A perfect match for a roast chook or a creamy pasta, this goes well with soft cheeses like Camembert or Brie. Luscious and creamy, there is a mealy fullness to the midpalate, finishing long and complex with a mouthwatering saline quality. 87% of the fruit from our Woolshed vineyard with the balance from the Pinnacles and Om Santi vineyards. Predominantly Clone 95, the balance clone 809.
